I suggest sliding an opening tool along the front of the case first to pop the plastic snaps holding the cover to the bottom of the laptop. The snaps near the hinges are the most challenging. It is also important, when following these directions in reverse order, to fit the right side of the case over the sliding power switch before applying downward pressure required to snap the case bottom back into place. Wouldn’t want to break your power switch.
